Abstract
Isoxazol-5-one rings have been identified as relevant motifs in drug candidates, agrochemicals, and materials. Furthermore, this heterocycle has been also applied as a versatile building block for the preparation of a variety of densely functionalized molecules. This short review will present the most representative applications of isoxazol-5-ones in organic synthesis while discussing their properties and reactivity.

This does not mean that 1,2-additions to the carbonyl group of isoxazol-5-ones are not possible. See, for instance:
